hi all- it's time to sign up for 5x50 again. a great way to challenge yourself. unlike marcothon, it's not all about running & there are different ways to complete the challenge- with differing levels of commitment. good plan if you wish to encourage someone else to get active.

Thursdays

Hopefully you have all had your email reminder to 
sign up for the next block. 
You may notice that there is no reference to
 Thursday nights. After almost 13 years they are over.
So sign up quickly to Tuesday nights to make sure they don't go the same way!

I'd like to say special thanks to all the many joggers who have come  & put in a few miles with me over the years.
